Hold You

Your weight on my shoulders Is all I ever knew Yours is a burden I will always choose Told you I'd carry us To the ends of the earth I thought a promise was all I needed To stand by my word This is as far as my body allows You slip through my fingers and I let you down Although I swore I would never fall short I can't hold you Hold you Anymore You're always meant for me to cut you Leave you at altars A sweet-smelling savor Did I do you favors Are we speckled and spotted I wanted to carry you From the first time I lifted you up Above me Lovely There's no path left unveiled for us This is as far as my body allows You slip through my fingers and I let you down Although I swore I would never fall short I can't hold you Hold you Anymore (A sweet-smelling savor, did I do you favors) Hold you I can't hold you anymore (A sweet-smelling savor, did I do you favors) I May Have Needed You More Than You Ever Needed Me
